Good afternoon Rafael,
Many thanks for your prompt reply and the submission to the repository.
I have not yet started with the remaining documentation files (not even
downloading the Brazilian base files that I mentioned in the other
reply), but in the meantime I tried to understand the GIT process.
The main documentation I found in addition to your guidance was the
following link:
https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/GitHowTo
There is no mention in it about the protocol to create/request a git
account in GNOME and I was not able to find a a register/login on
https://git.gnome.org. Should it also be requested on i18n list?
Best regards,
Tiago Santos

Good afternoon,
I am a Portuguese l10n translator/commiter and at the moment I
am the most active member of the team. As such, I am
contacting you since Duarte Loreto (team coordinator) is
presently time constrained and he is unavailable to solve this
matter.
I am trying to commit documentation translations relating to
GNOME apps but in the last month I have faced the following error:
"An error occurred during applying your action: The commit
failed. The error was: 'Sorry, adding new translations for
documentation is not yet supported.'"
Some translations have been completed for quite a while and
there has been unsuccessful attempts to commit to repository
in the past. Has an example:
https://l10n.gnome.org/vertimus/gnome-getting-started-docs/master/getting-started/pt
Duarte mentioned me that this may be solved uploading the base
files on the proper branch directly to git. I hope that can be
solved on your side after this contact but, if it is not
possible, please guide me in the proper procedures to fix this
issue.
Many thanks for the given attention.
Best regards,
Tiago Santos

Done.
I suggestion double checking translator-credits, as it doesn't
contain the name and e-mail address of the last translator.
Cheers,

I'm sorry. I read your email so quickly that I didn't notice you were
asking more than just a commit of gnome-getting-started-docs. Anyway,
I already committed this translation for you guys.
Indeed, Damned-Lies doesn't support sending first translation of
documentation at the moment, in spite of accepting updates for
existent translations.
So, at the moment, you need to
1) have Git account in GNOME with write permission;
2) git clone the desired module;
3) manually edit the help' Makefile.am file (normally inside directory
help/ or gnome-help/) adding your language code where appropriate;
4) create your language directory (e.g. 'pt') inside the help files'
directory and put your translation in it with filename <language
code>.po (e.g. pt.po).
5) commit + push translation with git
For example:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-getting-started-docs/commit/?id=c704b36f6c36c2c594d11462b99ef2cbd70965b4
For information on Git usage, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/GitHowTo
If you don't have GNOME account with Git permission, you'll need to
request. I don't know what is the current policy on it, but some
information cane be found in:
https://wiki.gnome.org/AccountsTeam/NewAccounts
Alternatively, you can ask someone in this list to commit for you.
Regards,
Rafael Fontenelle
